Louisiana Get-Out-The-Vote Maps

FairVote2020 has developed an interactive map showing turnout rates for African-American voters in Louisiana. The map shows African American turnout rates in the 2000 presidential contest. Over 400,000 voting age African Americans in Louisiana did not vote in the November 2000 election.

You can zoom in on the map to view precinct-level turnout rates for 50 of the 64 parishes, where we were able to match political data to geographic precinct boundaries.

Other maps can be reached by clicking on "Compare Maps" to the left. These additional maps include census data on race, ethnicity and income.
